POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I can't believe we packed all this into 2025!

What a year. Thank you for being part of it 🥹❤️🥰

January - we started the year relaxing in Tennessee then headed to Florida for the annual RV show.

February - hit the road in the new Winnebago 24D, spending time in Arizona with sweet friends at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. Also had an impromptu meetup with our friends Phil & Stacy.

March - we took our first ever cruise together and loved it!

April - this was the month of state parks in Nevada! We visited Sand Harbor SP, Valley of Fire SP and Cathedral Gorge SP. Highly recommend all of them!

May - I took a group trip to Japan and made amazing memories with amazing new friends! I get to see several of them again this March and I can't wait! Also, Japan is incredible and I can't wait to return.

June Pt 1 - We hosted our third ever @newstateadventures group trip with a bucket list safari adventure in South Africa. We spent time with the most wonderful travelers and witnessed the most incredible wildlife. Truly a pinch me moment!

June Pt 2 - Revisited North Cascades National Park to film an episode for our NP series and fell in love all over again!

July - celebrated the 4th in Leavenworth, took Scout tubing for the first time and visited two more new National Parks: Sequoia & Kings Canyon.

August - celebrated Piper and Ella's 12th Birthday, are our way through the Minnesota State Fair and spent our last month in the new 24D RV.

September - finally visited Door County, WI and we totally get the hype. Also visited family and celebrated Howard's birthday in Cincinnati.

October - hosted our fourth group trip taking 20 travelers to one of our favorite places on the planet, Jordan! It was a joy watching this group fall in love with such a special country.

November - Egypt! This destination had been on our list for so long and we checked off group trip number 5 with another adventurous group.

December - slowed down and soaked up sweet moments with friends and family! Plus, not one, but two incredible JC Penney photoshoots. 😍

Alright 2026... Let's do it 🫶🥂

🚐✨ From Online Friends to Campground Buddies! ✨🚐

Who knew that buying a Winnebago View would come with a built-in friendship package? 🤩 Months ago, we connected with Lori McCartney & Bill McCartney of @happyrvafter online because of our shared love for this rig. This week, while we had already planned a site at Lost Dutchman State Park, they decided, “Why not?” and snagged a campsite too—just so we could finally meet in person!

THEN.… plot twist! Katelyn Newstate & Howard Newstate of the @newstatenomads Newstate’s (also rocking a View/Navion) realized they’d be in the area and grabbed a site as well! 🎉 So, what happens when three Winnebago Views/Navions roll into camp together? Laughter, stories, and the best kind of memories.

Lori & Bill—y’all are our people. It was fantastic finally hanging out in real life and discovering just how much we have in common. Of course, it’s always a 10/10 when we get to spend time with the Newstates.

This RV life has given us some of the most incredible friendships, and my heart is seriously full. ❤️ Here’s to the road bringing us all back together soon!

Winnebago Wild is a new FaceBook Group for people who like to take their Winnebago off the beaten path or for those who use their Winnebago as a basecamp as they explore with off road vehicles, bikes, Kayaks or by foot.

The goal of this group is to help one another find cool locations, share tips while off-roading, hiking, biking or boating. Also to learn and teach safety tips, how to use recovery gear, what first aid to carry while out in the wild and more. We hope that this online group can grow to a point where we do meetups and share our interests in person and make some epic stories to tell and share.

It's a big wild world out there, let's discover it together!

✝️ God bless Margaret Jean and Stevie Lee! This weekend Maggie and her cousin Stevie were baptized together in our Catholic Church. It was such a joyful occasion with so many friends and family gathering from around the country. Thanks to everyone who traveled long distances, short distances and everything in between to support Maggie and Stevie on their big day! 🕊
